Hi all :) This is my monthly status report for April 2023 with the main activities I have done during the period. ## 0. Research * Onion Plan session in Costa Rica: * Slides and notes: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/team/-/wikis/2023-Tor-Meeting-Costa-Rica-… * Issue: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/onionplan/-/issues/7 * I'd like to thank everyone that attended the session and also those who gave valuable feedback :) * Onion Plan updates: while … [View More]preparing to the session, I made a number of updates, but there's still many things in the TODO list. * Website: https://tpo.pages.torproject.net/onion-services/onionplan/ * Recent changes: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/onionplan/activity * Onion-Location: problems and fixes session in Costa Rica: * Helped with note taking and with the discussion: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/team/-/wikis/2023-Tor-Meeting-Costa-Rica-… ## 1. Development * Onionprobe: 1.1.0 and 1.1.1 releases: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/onionprobe/-/blob/main/Cha… * Helped with the internal Security Policy Session at the Tor In-person meeting. ## 2. Support * For the Community Day in Costa Rica, * I helped writing the `cebollitas` project, with some small Onion Services examples currently based on Docker: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/cebollitas * We had a nice workshop about setting up Onion Services and we did a small exercise about how a very basic distributed chat system could work. It was just people writing messages on HTML files and refreshing each other Onion Service tabs on their browsers, but was enough to teach the mechanics and let people know how the technology can easily enable them to send content without having to run a centralized service. * We collected feedback about how to improve the workshop and also how deploying and developing system with Onion Services technology could be made easier. ## 3. Organization Time spent (from the total available for Tor-related work): | Category | Percentage |---------------|------------ | Research | 19 | Development | 7 | Support | 17 | Organization | 57 |---------------|------------ | Total | 100 (Despite lot's of research, development and support, the Costa Rica meeting made me track most of my time as "organization" work). -- Silvio Rhatto pronouns he/him [View Less]

Hi everyone! Here is my status report for April 2023. At the beginning of the month, Mullvad Browser was released 🎉️! So, I answered several technical questions about it and reviewed some of the issues we received. I also solved some quick ones. Also, I rebased both Tor Browser and Mullvad Browser to 102.10esr and created the first 12.5 alpha branch for Mullvad Browser. I was the second builder for Tor Browser 12.5a5, which made us find another DMG reproducibility problem [0]. A merge … [View More]
